Abstract

A snow removal device in the form of a three panel scoop or plough includes a center panel with two side panels hinged or otherwise connected to the center panel. All three panels can have hand holes for a user manipulating the scoop when pushing or scooping snow from a driveway or other surface. The panels can be substantially planar and have a lip or scraper on a forward edge to assist in scooping snow. The side panels can be hinged to the center panel in an opposite fashion to allow the scoop to be folded for storage in a Z-shaped folding movement to a substantially flat, three layer configuration. A container can be removably attached to one of the panels. The container can be used to hold ice-melting granules for application by a user to icy surfaces during a snow removal operation.
